Evaluation of porphyrin molecules as effective corrosion inhibitors for copper alloy in sulfuric acid using both experimental and computational approaches by Metwally Abdallah, Majda Alfakeer, Rasha N Felaly, Abdulaziz M. Almohyawi, Jabir H. Al-Fahemi, Salih S. Al-Juaid, Doaa F. Seyam, Elsayed M. Mabrouk, Kamal A. Soliman

“…It was discovered that the two TMPP compounds retarded the pitting corrosion of C12510 in chloride-containing solutions by shifting the pitting potential to a more noble direction. Based on all the approaches investigated, the inhibitory efficacy of p-TMPP is higher than that of m-TMPP at every concentration tested. …”
